Novartis: announces tislelizumab study results
(CercleFinance.com) - Novartis has announced that tislelizumab plus chemotherapy significantly improved overall survival as first-line treatment for advanced esophageal cancer in a Phase III study.
The group intends to submit these data to regulatory authorities and will work with BeiGene to present them at an upcoming medical meeting.
